Software Development For Local and Regional Authorities

Whether you’re digitising social care delivery, integrating public health data, or building platforms to support regional transformation, we help authorities deliver on their ambitions with robust, user-focused technology.

Understanding Software Development for Local and Regional Authorities

Local and regional authorities are at the forefront of delivering essential public services — from social care and public health to housing, early intervention, and community wellbeing. As expectations grow for accessible, digital-first services, authorities need software that is secure, interoperable, and capable of supporting complex, multi-agency delivery.

Effective software development for local and regional authorities means creating platforms that improve service access, streamline operations, and enable data sharing across departments and partners — including NHS organisations, third-sector providers, and integrated care systems.

At 6B, we work with councils and public bodies to create tailored digital solutions that align with national policy, support local priorities, and make a tangible impact on people’s lives.

Our Approach to Software Development for Local and Regional Authorities

We start by working with stakeholders across departments — including commissioning teams, digital transformation leads, and service managers — to understand your current challenges, policy drivers, and service design goals.

Our design process focuses on usability, accessibility, and inclusion — ensuring residents, carers, and staff can access and use digital services with confidence. Whether we’re building case management platforms, data dashboards, or citizen portals, we design for a wide range of user needs and devices.

Our engineering team delivers secure, cloud-based software that integrates with NHS systems, social care platforms, finance and HR tools, and local data infrastructure. We ensure compliance with GDS and WCAG standards, GDPR, and sector-specific governance frameworks.

We provide full end-to-end delivery — from discovery and co-design through to development, integration, clinical safety assurance (where applicable), staff training, and managed support services.
